Devil Mountain Ultra 50mile or 50kJoin us for one hell of a run — July 17th, 2010Take a run through some of the most remote and pristine old growth forest in the United States. The climbs are great, topping out at just over 9,800' with more than 5,000' of vertical gain in the 50k and 8,300' of gain in the 50 mile. The ultra off-road course visits several mountain areas to the west of Turkey Springs, Chris Mountain, Middle Mountain, Horse Mountain and Devil Mountain. The terrain is nothing short of spectacular. It's the perfect location to beat the summer heat, with plenty of shade and plenty of elevation! The 1/2 marathon course is "out and back", running to the final aid station and returning. It offers less climbing than the full course, but some of the same great trails. We strongly recommend that you run with a camelback or water bottle! Aide stations are fully stocked and located every six miles or so. We strongly recommend that you run with a water bottle or camelback! It is dry here and can be warm. 50 mile runners,,,, The section from the 50/50 "split, aid station #4 at mile 22.9 to aid station #5 at mile 30.9 is remote, rugged and 8 miles long! Carry two bottles at least and or a full camelback. This section is extremely beautiful and extremely remote.... You will most likely be along for very long stretches and should plan accordingly. To keep the running community together and allow friends and family to be involved in the awards and finish we are working to incorporate the food, drink and award festivities into the finish area for this event. Stay tuned!
